Trendy backyard patio photo in Los Angeles with no cover

This backyard is simple and relaxing. The space is not large, but the layout and design allowed for spacious seating, full size pool, spa, BBQ, TV, eating, reading and sun bathing areas. The traditional feel is complimented by the playful black and white polka dot pillows.

Creating a space that combined the warmth of an older home with the features and materials of today was the task for the designer on this project located on Cape Cod. The designer used Mouser Cabinetry with a beaded face frame and the Stratford inset door style in white throughout the kitchen. Wood beams are the focal point and draw the eye to the vaulted ceiling.
